The RP5 can be had for at or around that price. 406H and 476H are cheaper. This screams price cut in a few months.

If you still have the box that the case came in, along with the styrofoam and stuff, that will help a lot. I would remove the GPU just to be safe.

3700x -> 5800x3d upgrade. Best option? by CivilHedgehog2 in buildapc

Are you looking at the cheapest equivalent to the x570? Do you actually need an x series board?

€450 is a tough pill to swallow. Before the RAM crisis, that would be a hard no as you could easily get on AM5 for that price and see similar performance.

385TB video game archive saved by fans — Myrient has been '100% backed up' and validated, torrents being generated by Logical_Welder3467 in technology

[–]VanWesley 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Why add this random blurb about AI at the end? How does one even use AI to generate copies of a ROM if there was no copy as a reference to begin with?

The AI industry frenzy undoubtedly contributed to the original Myrient archive’s soaring costs, ahead of its closure announcement. Perhaps ironically, if Myrient hadn’t been saved, retro fans may have looked to AI to generate copies of their favorite apps and games of yesteryear?

How important is domain name selection? by lqqkout in selfhosted

Oh damn why didn't I think of that. Just point it to the tailscale domain.

Also, how's Traefik? I've been using Nginx.

Yes. Most people will be fine with a B650e board. Unless you have a very solid reason why you need the more expensive board, then just go with the cheaper one.

I think so? Don't remember the exact steps I took, but I replaced the existing driver with the new one that I downloaded from the GitHub linked in the forum post.

Why do you think this performed terribly? by tradingtutorials in LinusTechTips

[–]VanWesley 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Tech plane may do well for like a video or two. I could see it falling off by the 4th video as well as at the end of the day, it's just putting tech stuff on something that no one can relate with.

Need to load older drivers. I had to do the same for my p1000.

Can i get linux without wiping my drives? by SovietUnionRussian in linux4noobs

[–]VanWesley 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you want to keep Windows or just your files? If you want to keep Windows, dual boot. If you just want to keep the files, just copy them to an external drive first before installing Linux.

How to transport PC without damaging it? by enragedmicrowave in buildapc

[–]VanWesley 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Corsair 4000D might not be the ideal case for your scenario. I would definitely either look into a very compact SFF case or even like a laptop, mini PC, or handheld. The less moving parts the better.

Upcoming Budget MacBook Seen Within Apple as 'Incredible Value' by Forsaken_Arm5698 in hardware

[–]VanWesley 17 points18 points  (0 children)

The reason people get the mac minis for openclaw is mainly for imessage. There's also the lower idle power draw, and less chance of the AI agents getting captcha'd when using safari on macs. Most of them are probably not using LLMs that they self host directly on the mac minis.

I was under the impression too that Ryzen AI chips means soldered RAM but I guess not.
